Tom worked patiently with us to find exactly the right property at a price we could afford. We were first time homebuyers, and he went above and beyond in terms of guiding us through the 'murky waters' of the purchase process. I can't recommend this group enough. If you're upfront with them about what you want and what you can spend, they'll find your dream house for you.

I called the office several times and no one could tell me if my application was approved or denied. Jeremy took the time to reach out to me and explain that there was miscommunication with the application process on their end.

Not a lot of business reach out to it's patrons that express a concern, especially during a nation wide pandemic and I greatly appreciate the kind gesture.

They make simple things difficult, communication is almost nonexistent, and you have to constantly double-check everything because they add charges quickly but "forget" to remove them. There is no accountability, no urgency, and no professionalism. If I had known my community would switch to Paragon, I would have reconsidered buying here.

The Puri's have this company fill their buildings for them and are THE worst managers I have ever experienced, and I've had some bad experiences in this city. Refer to my review of Puri Management. We're in the process of taking them to court to get part of our security deposit back that they deducted unfairly from. I just used this service to find my new apartment and thought it was wonderful. I have to admit that I've never been a fan of rental agencies that take you around and rip you off on apartments that you could find for cheaper on your own. However, this place was different. They don't have a huge selection, but they've got the real deals. They don't try to waste your time and show you apartments they know you don't want or can't afford. Here's my experience. They showed us a place where the owner was not advertising anywhere else. So we wouldn't have found it anywhere. It was right around the train line which was exactly what we wanted. They were completely honest with us about what was going to be new and old in the apartment. AND, it was cheaper than other 2 bedrooms in the area. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you want to move to the northern Chicago area.

In 2009 I bought my first home with Tim Stassi of Dwell One realty. He was a great buyer's agent…read more Tim matched my unique requirements superbly and ultimately helped close an amazing deal. Ten years later I was ready to sell the same home and of course I returned to Tim. Once again he came through with a huge win. Following Tim's advice and strategy I was able to sell our place in just a few days and negotiate everything we needed in the process. When it comes time for me to sell again I know exactly who to call - and I can't recommend Dwell One / Tim Stassi highly enough.

We highly recommend using Dwell One Realty.

Gail Spreen was an absolute pleasure to work with. At the start, she gave sound advice as to how to…read moreproperly stage our condo so it looked the best. She told us what furniture to move to storage and what to leave out. She even gave us advice on paint colors that would most appeal to a wide range of buyers. When the unit was on the market, she was wonderful. Printed materials looked great, and she was a real advocate for us in pointing out the favorable features of the unit. It is a tough market right now, and when we got a bit down, she managed to keep our spirits up. When we received offers, her advice as to how to respond and how to counter was exceptional. We are thrilled to have worked with her on the sale.

Buying your first home can be scary but she made it as stress-free as possible.
